DJ Khaled Responds To Fake Goyard Jacket Controversy

Did DJ Khaled go against his words and play himself by rocking a custom made Goyard jacket at the MTV Video Music Awards?

DJ Khaled’s appearance at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards was a big one as he hosted the pre-show ceremonies and acted as a correspondent for the main event. However, the sharply dressed DJ’s wardrobe was called into question.

Khaled was spotted what looked to be a silk jacket made by luxury brand Goyard which is currently a favorite among rich rappers. In case you and your bank account are unfamiliar, it’s the company that makes the stuff with the “Y” all over it.

Khaled was spotted at the VMAs and at afterparties wearing this.

While many assumed that Khaled had yet again scored another exclusive piece of clothing, which he is known to do, the friendly sticklers at Goyard went through the trouble of telling the world that Khaled’s jacket was a “total fake.”

Well d*mn.

In true Khaled fashion [no pun intended], he vibrated above the remarks and informed Goyard and the world that he did indeed use authentic Goyard silk scarves to make a jacket that could fit his body. He also said that he wasn’t stopping there. He plans to make other items out of the scarves too.

Goyard responded by retweeting Khaled, but still reminding everyone that they don’t know him and they have not made any collaborations with him.
